Charming Incldsat from the Ll1s q .
Noted Engiish Woman
The following beautiful story Is told
Of Lady Stanley. wife Of the late Dean
Stanley Of Westminster Abbey. in con-
nection with London hospital near
the abbey: Lady Stanley was in the
habit Of spending good deal Of time
in this hospital. talking with the sick
and suffering people there, and trying
to cheer and comfort them Among
these was poor woman suffering
from painful and dangerous disease.
Lady Stanley's kind words had been
great comfort to her on her sick-bed.
The doctors said that her life could b
saved only by her going through :
very painful operation. They told her
that she must certainly die unless the
operation was performed. Il think l
could bear it, she said. IL Lady Stan
ley could be with me while Il was be-
ing done Lady Stanley was sent for.
When the messenger arrived at her
home, he found her dressed in tho
splendid robes which ladies wear when
called upon to attend on Queen Vic
toria. She received the message from
the hospital. There was no time to
change her dress; 90 she threw : cloak
over her. and FASTENED to the hospital.
She spoke some encouraging words to
the poor woman, and stood by her side
till the Operation was over and the
poor, suffering patient was made COM
Portable. Then the noble lady fastened
TO the palace. She apologized g the
Queen for her delay in coming. and
told her what had caused the delay.
The Queen praised her for kindly
waiting on one Of her suffering sub.
jccts before coming to wait on her.

after this he sent one of his friends around
to look at the horse, and buy it il possible.
The purchase was made the money passed,
and the butchers horse took his place in the
White House stables His name came from
the curious manner in which he was ac-
quired
Grant visited his stables daily while he
was President, and it was during his admin
| istration that the present stables of the
| White House were built They consist of a
low brick structure in the form Of the head
OF a I, the two ears of which are used as
carriage houses, and the head of which
forms the stable proper, The stalls are
wide and roomy, and they are kept as clean
as New England kitchen. Grant visited
his horses after he was through with the
business of the day. He saw that they had
the best kind of feed, and had them regli-
larly exercised. He did not allow any one
| to ill-treat them, and when driving always
| held the reins himself.
President Arthur had number of good
horses in his stables, and he seldom drove
about Washington without a coachman in
livery. During the latter part of his term
| his doctors advised him to take horseback
rides, and he did this for a time. When he
left the White House his horses were sold.
President Cleveland rides out in his car

had a troubled look during those days, and
talked but little. Mrs. Lincoln kept the
poorest horses of any administration l
served under"
President Grants love for horses has be-
come proverbial He had been noted as a
horsernan long before he came to the White
House, and at the time that he was elected
he had a stock farm near st. Louis, where,
it is said he kept more than 100 horses. He
drove the best of horses while lie was Presi-
dent, and his favorites occupied a large
space in the newspaper literature of the
time Among Gen. Grants handsome
horses were Cincinnati. Egypt and jeff
Davis Cincinnati was good saddle horse,
and the President could ride him to any
point in the city and leave him standing
unhitched for any length of time. He was
never frightened at parades or street fights,
and Grant was sure that however long he
might remain in the. houses Of his friends
upon his visits he would find Cincinnati
waiting for him when he got through.
The horse called JEFF Davis was kicker,
and he had the habit of biting to such an ex-
tent that the stable hands were afraid TO go
near him. Gen. Grant could, however, han
Ole him as ne desired, and as soon as he en-
tered the stable JEFF Davis would throw
back his ears and move about restlessly un-
til the General came up'and patted him.
One of Grants best horses was Known as
Butcher Boy, into the possession Of which
ne came in curious way. Grant was riding
one day through Washington, and tried 70
pass a butchers wagon jogging along in
front of him, The boy driving the horse
whipped up, and Gen. Grant erld he had a
lively race. The General was in a light, un-
pretentious rig, and the boy had no idea
that he was racing with the President His
horse was SO good, however, that he kept
ahead for long distance. President Grant
admired the horse during this race, and as
the wagon drove TO butcher shop in Wash
ington be quietly noted the place. Shortly

also lodge for the present. These will be
properly furnished by the 18th, and the
opening will then take place.
